Chatriel

Although I prefer episodic dramas, this movie looked cute so I decided to give it a chance. I'm glad I did, because it was super sweet; a 'love transcends time and space' type of story. It was almost juvenile in it's pureness, but not in a bad way. Several times throughout the film I was surprised to find silent tears running down my face as I smiled through the sweetness. I didn't find it a syrupy, saccharine type of sweet, but more like innocence embodied in a couple of teenagers. (However, the movie kept reminding me that both characters were in their early 20's.)

This movie does contain a time travel trope. While time travel is my least favorite genre, I did appreciate that the movie included a quick peek at an alternate timeline in a few places. I would absolutely recommend this movie. It was -kind of- everything I don't like all meshed together into a pleasant experience.
